Xihai Wetland Park, close to the Second Ring Road, covers an area of 10.9 hectares. It was only opened quietly in October 2018, so there are not many tourists who know this wetland park. Nevertheless, it is another rare urban wetland in Beijing after the Summer Palace and Yuyuantan Park.
The West Sea is the westernmost of the three components of Shichahai waters. Compared with the front sea and back sea, the West Sea can be said to be very quiet. The area is not large. It takes less than ten minutes to walk along the lake. Almost all local residents who live nearby. It looks like it's inconspicuous, but there's a lot of amazing content here! The water in Shichahai waters comes from the Gaochun River system. The West Sea is actually the original water pool. When the Yuan Dynasty was located on the north side of the Palace Palace City, it was one of the important nodes on the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. It was once a very busy and lively pier. The planning and construction here is Guo Shoujing, a famous scientist from the Yuan Dynasty. Now the Huitongxuan on the hill in the northwest corner of the park is Guo Shoujing Memorial Hall. After WeChat appointment and sweeping the health treasure, you can enter the free visit. It details Guo Shoujing's life and main achievements. There is also a comprehensive explanation of the water conservancy projects during the Yuan Dynasty. Of course, the water system construction of Yuan Dadu is the main one, which is full of harvest. From the hillside to the northeast, you can see the Deshengmen Arrow Building, which is also a good view. At first I saw the name of this park called "Xihai Wetland Park", and I felt that it was a bit "exaggerated". Isn't there a street park with a lake? How dare you call it "wetland park"? But when I came in, people really didn’t say a big word. The landscape of the lotus leaves on the west side of the lake alone was very shocking. Now it is the flowering period of the lotus. The lotus flowers are blooming in full bloom, and the lotus leaves are fresh and green. The lotus leaves are also bulging. Although it is incomparable with Lotus Pool Park, it is not easy to say that there is such a large lotus pond in the second ring road in Beijing. Going east along the south bank, it is a large area of water and grass with more than three meters high. It is on the shore, covering the sky and the sun, and you can catch it by reaching out. Look carefully at the water and grass hidden in a lot of ducks, today the sun is too poisonous, they all hide here to cool down, some people come not afraid, even chasing the footsteps of the shore people to eat, very harmonious. The tall and dense water grass is full of shores in three directions of Xihainan, East and North. There are countless ducks and big geese inside. There is also a red-billed water bird that is particularly beautiful and the sound of calling is also very good. Their homes are mostly on two lakes. Island, but the activity area is still mainly on the shore. They also like to interact with people. It’s great to be here, enjoy the lotus, visit the exhibition, watch the birds, interact with the ducks and goose, and the big willow trees on the shore provide enough shade. It’s so pleasant to stay for half a day.
Shichahai Xihai Wetland Park is located at No. 60, Deshengmen West Street, Xicheng District, Beijing. It covers an area of about 80,000 square meters. The water area is relatively open, the water quality is clear, the lotus blossoms in summer, the reeds are lush, and various birds gather here to croak and play. There are chic courtyards and trestle bridges on the shore. It is a good place for tourists to relax and view.
In summer, in the Xihai Wetland Park, swallows frolic in the lake and the lotus pond.
Xihai Wetland Park is the first wetland park in the center of Beijing, rare. The best view of the lotus, the hydrophilic coast, reeds, grass, lotus, water duck, surrounded by natural landscape. Hot summer, comfortable and leisure.
